This PR replaces the `x/net/publicsuffix` package with `weppos/publicsuffix-go`. The conversations that leaded to this decision are #1479 and #1374. To summarize the discussion, the main issue with `x/net/publicsuffix` is that the package compiles the list into the Go source code and doesn't provide a way to easily pull updates (e.g. by re-parsing the original PSL) unless the entire package is recompiled. The PSL update frequency is almost daily, which makes very hard to recompile the official Golang package to stay up-to-date with all the changes. Moreover, Golang maintainers expressed some concerns about rebuilding and committing changes with a frequency that would keep the package in sync with the original PSL. See https://github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/issues/1374#issuecomment-182429297 `weppos/publicsuffix-go` contains a compiled version of the list that is updated weekly (or more frequently). Moreover, the package can read and parse a PSL from a String or a File which will effectively decouple the Boulder source code with the list itself. The main benefit is that it will be possible to update the definition by simply downloading the latest list and restarting the application (assuming the list is persisted in memory). |
